Pluto in the 12th house, Pisces, Jupiter/Neptune: “Out at Sea”

“Dreams become realities, ego’s get shattered…”

Wrapping up this Plutonic trip around the zodiac, Pluto in the 12th house, Pisces, Jupiter/Neptune is an emotional trauma which relates to our Dreams, and their necessary destruction.  Not that we are destined to have “bad ones” or “nightmares” but that we are meant to experience absolute disenchantment when it comes to the unrealistic ones. Our dreams/ideals must be tested, and they always manifest in unpredictable forms–some of the time, not exactly what we had hoped for. Lets allow Jeff Green to illuminate:

Pluto in the Twelfth House or Pisces: emotional trauma can occur to these individuals for the following causes:
1. When their innate sense of ideals are so severely crushed through life conditions that they become lost souls; souls that become utterly aimless, ungrounded, and who simply wander the alleyways of life.
2. When these individuals create a reality that seems to be the embodiment of all that they have ever dreamed of only to have that reality destroyed. The degree of disillusionment can create a state of absolute emotional devastation in which the will to continue living can become weakened if not extinguished.
3. When their innate need to rescue, save or help those in need, or those who are unstable, weird, or fractured becomes over extended to the point of feeling all used up. The trauma is one of total emotional exhaustion wherein they begin to wall themselves off from life, to enclose themselves in order to create a protection from the emotional demands of those around them.
When Pluto transits the Twelfth House, forms stressful aspects through transit to Neptune, the planetary ruler of the Twelfth House, or to planets within the natal Twelfth House, these issues and subsequent traumas may occur.

Via transit, I call this the “Dark night of the Soul.” When Pluto transits Neptune or Jupiter, we are faced with an absolute exhaustion of our core dreams in life, and we are forced to see the unrealistic nature of them. The biggest Let down. The goal here is to end up in a Surrender state.  It’s not to say, “quit dreaming” or “get out of your imagination”–on the contrary–Pluto wants us to dream productively; he wants us to be more realistic with our dreams. The state of Surrender also allows the Savior complex Jeff mentions to melt away.  If are completely in a state of Wu Wei (Enlightened Non action), then we won’t be prone to saving others, who ultimately need to save themselves. We get to save that energy and offer support by example instead.  Also, paying close attention to your dreams–for signs and symbols–is a wonderful way of navigating this sea of confusion.  synchronicity, coincidence, and De ja vu are also indicators you are moving in the right direction. Follow the butterflies (in and outside of your gut!). Good luck, good dreamin’.

FloOded by a thee Taurus moON

…it all started like a Tom Robbins weather report: ‘it was a sort of languid and retired morning, no animals felt like moving, birds we not singing their songs.  Walking by the Boulder creek, towards my favorite meditation spot, I stop to take a pee.  As soon as I begin, over a dozen people appear through the clearing. They were pointing and looking at the river.  Startled, I covered up, and walk away. As I climbed out of the soggy grey cottonwoods, I was accosted by a female cop, just doing her job (she was beautiful…an important, yet pointless detail I suppose.  But perfect for a Taurus moOn).  She tells me I cannot be down there.  I innocently reply, “Well, whhhhY not.” (all the while thinking its about indecent exposure, or something).  She says, “Its about to flash flood;” I fire back, “the 100 year flood…?” She crosses her fingers, and give a hestiant smile: “hopefully not.” I made it as far as the library before I got kicked out of there too.  Flood paranoia!!!

It is said the moOn is “exalted” in Taurus.  Meaning it is powerful within this sign.  The waters of Luna surge, the mind and emotions, are more potent.  Assisted by the Grand Cross, and the movement of Jupiter/Uranus into Aries, this Taurus mOon seems to have recieved an extra boost in Boulder town.  We are overdue.  This flood is past the 100 year marker, and it is expected any day now–or any minute.

…and so, I return home.  On my way, this Mississippi deta blues tune slides me into another frame of mind.  I become sullen and swept away.  I see an Aftrican Amercian homeless staple to Boulder, walking with his sack, with perfect posture, diligently moving away from the river.  It was a mini Epic of my day.  When I get home, my new tent awaits: its called the Neptune.  I set it up in the living room, and fall into a deep deep sleep, waiting for the floods.  I dreamt of Hawaii, and a new life.  I dreamt of Neptune. I felt like Alice, swept, but not completely away.

Ahhh, the Taurus moOn.  Whether exalted or not, I really like the way you Feel.

Technogypsy

Def: (gr/am/pd)–A wandering person who is both connected and disconnected from the rest of the world, surviving due to the advances and advantages of sophisticated, modern technology.

2. a “homeless” person, who isnt quite homesless, but is “home free” using technology for the advancement of their Soul.

….Smart phones and their connection to the 3g networks are changing the way life can be lived on this planet.  As long as a connection exists between computer and network, anything is possible.  You can be in the middle of the jungle, at the foot of a volcanoe in Hawaii, and still communicate with the outside world; You can give a reading, or teach a class from the steps of a temple in Kathmandu; You can be virtually be anywhere on the planet, and still stay tuned.  On top of 3g networks, we are seeing the sprawl of WIFI networks across the globe, making life–on one level easier–on another, mysteriously more difficult. Techoculture is detached. Its a kind of anarchist realm of self delusion, totally ungrounded from the rules of our dense reality (Saturn). Rules of communication are constantely being redefined.  People who were once shy, are now popular socialites on their blooming blogs.  Saying what you really mean isnt as difficult through the techno web, maybe because the consequences are less extreme– they hardly even exist.  Use Facebook as an example: How many of your friends are actually your friends? How many have you ever met in the flesh? How would you define your relationship to them? Have you experienced appaling behavior in your inbox or on your wall and wondered why……What to make of this? Our emotional bodies become confused: electricity and water have a strange affinity.  We have always been warned about what happens when you lick your finger and stick it into the socket; well, what about your Mind? It is affecting organic life in ways we have never seen.  Some say the bees are going because of the electromagnetic radiation dancing through the atmosphere, while others will argue its pesticides and MonsantoOOo (the “spawn of Satan”).  Whatever your stance within this technocracy, you are affected.  You cannot hide.  The rate of change on the planet is increasing exponentially.  Novelty is increasing to such a degree, we can’t keep up.  Like a Juggernaught of Information, we can choose either to surf this static wave, or be taken under.

Astrologically, we are speaking of Jupiter/Uranus once again, but also the decade old mutual reception between Uranus in Pisces and Neptune in Aquarius (one could argue the timeline of this actually going all the way back to the last Saturn/Jupiter conjunction in 1990–the birth of the Internet).  We have yet to truly find out the health consequences of spending countless hours with our machines.  We are clueless to the repercussions of being a technobrat.  But one things for sure, we will all see eachother on the  beaches…washed ashore by Finnegans startling and nearly impossible Wake. I know my place ( I think?): its as a Techogypsy.  With my Iphone and Macbook, nothing is stopping this Dreamer (Neptune on the South Node, Sag).

The tricky thing about Neptune…

… is you can’t win. It’s not about winning, it’s not about things working out the way you want them to. I feel called to talk about this now

I got a natal Mercury Neptune conjunction at 28 degrees sag. Both Saturn and Uranus are in an exact square to that conjunction. I can’t even say I’m being disillusioned, I’m being humbled.

Wherever we find Neptune is where a soul is gradually awakened to it’s utter lack of control and power in this profoundly vast and great mystery. Mercury Neptune in Sag= what do I really know? What is fact? How can I know for certain? Do I speak the truth, or rationalize what the truth is so that I feel secure?

That’s my blog for today. Wherever you got Neptune, Goddess wants to humble you. Chances are your sense of safety in this world is linked to the supposition of a reality that doesn’t actually exist. At key points that supposition will be seen for what it is- a mere creation of your own imagination.

Illusion is replaced by what has always been here. The undoing of our false projections onto reality, onto God, only leads to the revelation of what actually is true.

Neptune often manifests as a strong idealism- a yearning for a reality that is somehow better than the current status quo. That idealism is the very anthithesis of Neptune. Neptune symbolizes the ultimate realism. More so than Saturn.

I remember a few years ago, walking the streets in Olympia. I had a sudden realization that I actually don’t know anything about astrology. The vastness of what this stuff ACTUALLY IS. Seemed very far from my understanding. I felt SMALL and insignificant in the face of what astrology actually is. That feeling cyclicly returns to me.

Love, Ari

the Eye in the sky

…ever since the planet Neptune has been in the later degrees of the zodiac, the acceleration of novelty (new/mutant information complexification) and science (interconnected by default) have slowly blowing our changing minds.

In the 70′s, Neptune was in the middle to late degrees of Sagittarius.  This is where the constellation Ophiuchus resides; it also the center of the Milky Way Galaxy.  It is a place where you remember the Divine truth within your soul.

….people who have planets in these degrees of the zodiac will be heavily influenced by the Sag in those planets or angles.  It will make them preachy, or ‘enlightened.’

Now, Neptune is in the late degrees of Aquarius bringing on billions of blogs, billions of advancements, and billions of new neurons that are being created between all the Minds on the planet. You see, Neptune relates to the Collective Unconscious mind–it connects all of us.  (The Internet…oOo…..Indra’s net.) Our advancements have us tumbling into the uncertain future, with caffeinated eyes.

The planet Neptune is also about to move into Pisces–its own sign.  This Ingress will begin soon and last until 2012.  What can be expected?
